What is the likelihood of L3 layoffs in New York in 2016? Please let me know if you have any information.

This is the most crooked company in which I have ever worked. The upper management is criminal and lower management by design, gets to work on a little yellow bus. They do all they can do to purge their ranks of anyone with knowledge, expertise or a... — read more 

New quality upper management position, seeks lowest standards in the company. No full degree, no commercial experience, nothing about FAA knowledge or VIP Mods. Looks like a set up for a ringer. That's all the commercial side needed another stooge.

Can't wait to get back to work to start complaining and whining and shirking and underachieving. It's what I do best. It's what we do best. Oh yeah there are some people there working hard but management beats the life out of them.
